In terms of suspension. You can get some tokico shocks, your choice of springs and some sways for just about $1000 before installation.

You should not improve power first.

Handling goes first. D-Specs, Tanabe Springs, Hotckiss Swats can all be had for < $1000 if you know where to look. And if you know somebody who will not charge you for installation and adjustments.
